To all of you who offered assist and recommendations (online and off ) re the Bridgewater Kitchen Faucet my daughter purchased: Thank you muchly! My curiosity got the better of me especially after several of you mentioned a hardware supply shop. That left out Wall Mart, Sears. etc, as you noted.. Our purchase came from Orchard Supply Hardware (OSH). I began there. The salesman I spoke to was uncertain about the Bridgewater faucet;. He only knew that the brand was the OSH house brand.. . By this time, the faucet had been installed.. I was beginning to get used to it. My private eye efforts unveiled a Bridgewater Plumbing Supply with a faucet of the same name located in Vermont. I believe New Hampshire was also mentioned. From there I tried to discover if OSH were part of a Bridgewater conglomerate. I could find nothing except the fact that OSH's administrative offices are in San Jose, California. Still not satisfied, I read the installation booklet and decided to call the Replacement Parts Division. Once I identified the faucet, the gentleman I spoke to said this particular faucet is in the category of a $200 kitchen faucet and that it should last quite a long time. In our history, OSH has had a long-lasting, trusting business reputation. We've decided to put its faucet to the test! Thanks again.
